  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

    Our moderating team are all volunteers & cannot moderate the forum 24/7 & as a consequence problematic content that contravenes our rules & standards may go unnoticed for some time before it can be removed.

    We reserve the right to delete posts that offend against our above policy & indeed, to ban posters who are repeat offenders or who breach our code of conduct.

    WE HAVE BUILT A FANTASTIC ONLINE COMMUNITY AT DEMONLAND OVER THE PAST 23 YEARS & WE WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THE CLUB WE LOVE & ARE SO PASSIONATE ABOUT.

    Thank you for your continued support & understanding. Go Dees.

Just a couple of quick questions regarding Sunday Night's showpiece.

Are you going? Yes

Crowd? 21,334

Who will win? Melbourne by 26

Which camp are you in - Winning or tanking

If Richmond win on the weekend, then Kruezer is on the table for both clubs, so I'd hope we'd lose. However if Richmond lose (more likely) then I hope we go out and belt the blues, and enjoy a rare evening out at the footy.

I never miss a game in Melbourne.

But I must admit, the atmosphere is going to be very odd. I wouldn't be surprised if half the Melbourne fans that turn up will be barracking for the Blues.

Could only see Tigers getting up if Crows roll Pies and Saints lose interest. Tigers could not beat Saints if they are playing for finals. If above happens I will feel sick knowing that tankers will get 1 and 2 in the draft and 1 in PSD. If that happens look for an old man throwing up in the AFL members on ground level near the old coaches box.

Are you going? yes

Crowd? 23,000

Who will win? Melbourne 78 points (Newton to kick 7)

Which camp are you in? Read my name: NO TANK!

[Edit]I would be less unhappy if we lost as long as Richmond lose, i cannot accept being wooden spooners this year, even if it does get us Kruezer. It'd just be funny to see Carlton miss out on their PP.

Which camp are you in - Winning --> 3rd pick will still be a good one

That would be 4th pick.

1........Carlton (PP) Kreuzer

2........Richmond Cotchin (damn, i really wanted him)

3........Carlton Morton

4........Melbourne Hopefully Brad Ebert

Melbourne really need pace and class in the mid-field. With that in mind, and with Cotchin gone no doubt before our pick, we should go after Brad Ebert. Why??? Because he runs hard, has got a big tank, has a big body, has a big kick, shows great leadership, has class and skill and he has some dash about him too.

Whilst Cotchin may be more silky and ooze class, Ebert goes in a bit harder and is a bit quicker i think (but trials will tell all). If we are able to off-load a big name (ala Trav, Bruce, etc) during trade week and gain another top 10 pick (unlikely i know) it will lessen the effect of not having a higher pick if we lose to Carlton.

I am definitely going (so excited), however I have just realised that I haven't paid my MCC yet and the first cut off was.. well.. yesterday.

So can someone direct me to where the MFC members can sit as I haven't sat there at all this year?

Just to save a bit of time..

Thanks :)

and I'm saying NO to the tank - go Dees!

Good point, and I agree with Ebert being our pick.

Are you going? No, this situation is humiliating and insulting to us members.

Crowd? 12,500

Who will win? Melbourne by 60

Which camp are you in - Tanking. We cant afford to miss out on pick 2,18,19.

The fact that we are going to win this game is very upsetting. There is a big difference between pick 2,18,19 compared to 4 and 20. A complete waste of a season.

Why??? This match has absolutely no meaning at all, thanks to Dimitriou's farcical bonus for the cheating tanking Blues.

They wll be lucky to get 12,000 I reckon.

Won't even listen.

No interest whatever in the result - if we win will it be due to CFC's cheating??? If they win, we will be the accused.

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.
